Meredith Mizell 🎨🌿

It’s awful—been trying to do the little things I can do like contacting representatives, boycotting complicit businesses, etc., but it was like my brain just shut down a few days ago I’ve spent this week doing fun stuff and staying off the internet. Take care of yourself and hang in there!

Thank you! 😊🫶

This is my entry for the Sophisticated Stripes #spoonflowerchallenge that opened for voting today! I wanted it to have a textured, lacy look to it that would fit into a variety of home decor styles.

I’ve been maxing out my colorways and scales for a few months so that does a lot of the heavy lifting!

Thank you! 😊

Thank you for the kind words! 🫶

8 February 2025 Cancel the Christie's AI Art Auction Nicole Sales Giles & Sebastian Sanchez Christie’s, New York Dear Nicole and Sebastian, We are writing to express serious concern over your upcoming auction of AI art at Christie’s. Many of the artworks you plan to auction were created using AI models that are known to be trained on copyrighted work without a license. These models, and the companies behind them, exploit human artists, using their work without permission or payment to build commercial AI products that compete with them. Your support of these models, and the people who use them, rewards and further incentivizes AI companies’ mass theft of human artists’ work. We ask that, if you have any respect for human artists, you cancel the auction. Yours sincerely, The undersigned artists

🔴CALLING ALL ARTISTS🔴

Christie's NYC is planning an AI art auction expected to bring in over $600,000 to creators who've used models trained on copyrighted material from non-consenting artists.

If you object to this, please sign and share this open letter.

This elderflower pattern has been popular with Spoonflower buyers lately—I made a bunch of different colorways for it but this light blue might be my personal favorite!

Loved this video from interior designer Denise Joy about Afro Boho design!

True story 🌱

Love the expressive lines and shapes on these!

Me too! Geometrics aren’t my strong suit to begin with so I let the traditional quilt block do the work for me. 😅 Very impressed with the folks who came up with something from scratch!

Thank you! Been working on developing a muted color palette for a while now and I’m liking how it’s going. 😊

For this week’s Minimalist Cheater Quilt #spoonflowerchallenge I went with a simple design based on a traditional quilt block—I entered the pink one in the challenge but made a few other colorways to go with it!

I’m a surface designer and would love to be added!

We’re in this together! 🙌 I think the best thing we can do is contribute to building a thriving surface design community here on BlueSky.

Absolutely amazing picture. 🤣

A view of a beige surface with 10 rolls of wallpaper arranged side by side. The wallpaper designs range from complex nature designs to simple geometric designs, and all are in muted colors ranging from gray to green to blue. At the bottom there is the following text on three separate lines: “Tanglewild Design / Inspired by nature, drawn by hand / Sophisticated art for your home.”

Hi there! 👋 I’m Meredith and I’m a surface pattern designer. I draw on my experience as a gardener, herbalist, and all-around plant nerd to create elegant, nature-inspired patterns. You can shop my designs on fabric, wallpaper, and home decor at Spoonflower.

It’s hard because it’s been the go-to place for artists/designers for so long! But I’d rather put my time & effort into a platform like BlueSky that better aligns with my values. We’ll see how it goes!

Well, I took the plunge and deleted my Instagram accounts today. I hope BlueSky will end up being a good place promote my work as I build my surface pattern design business! 🤞 #spoonflower #surfacepatterndesign

For the Accent Wall #spoonflowerchallenge this week, I started with the idea of spring bulbs in forcing vases and it took a bit of a kitschy turn that I decided to lean into!

My Quail & Bramble Chinoiserie pattern was inspired by an experience I had as a teenager, when I attended a week-long summer camp in Edgefield, South Carolina that was centered around bobwhite quail and their conservation. (I was a very nerdy kid.)
